Chords

This song is in the key of C Capo V to play along in G at [Verse]
    G              D              G
I’m staring at the page and I got nothing

D                                 G
Not one single chord, or rhyme in sight

   C             Gdim
No fresh idea in view

      G                  Em
Not a single word that's true

                C        D            G
I’ll be singing all the same old crap tonight
[Chorus]
B7
Same old crap tonight

Em
Same old crap tonight

A7                              D     C G D7
Lit up by this cold fluorescent light

    C              Gdim
Why should I worry now

     G               Em
They don't listen anyhow

        C               D             G
So, I’m singing all the same old crap tonight
[Verse]
D                                   G
Each day I pour my heart out on the paper

  D                         G
I open up a vein and let it bleed

  C               Gdim
I think I've got a hit

G              Em
No one gives a shit

      C
So, I guess I’ll give ’em

D                    G
what they think they need
[Chorus]
B7
Same old crap tonight

Em
Same old crap tonight

A7                              D      C G D7
Lit up by this cold fluorescent light

    C              Gdim
Why should I worry now

           G         Em
They don't listen anyhow

        C               D             G
So, I’m singing all the same old crap tonight
[Bridge]
  D                                G
I took my song and went on down to Nashville

  D                            G
I went door to door down Music Row

B7
Every door slammed shut

Em
Never scored a cut

A                               D  C G D7
All I heard was "No, goddam it, no!"
[Verse]
D                             G
So here I am again at Shakey’s Pizza

D                                  G
Where I debut each new song that I write

G         C              Gdim
With this rowdy, drunken crowd

         G                   Em
With the juke box cranked up loud

        C              D        G
I’ll be sing ’em brand new crap tonight
[Outro]
B7
Brand new crap tonight

Em
Brand new crap tonight

A7                              D      C G D7
Lit up by this cold fluorescent light

    C              Gdim
Why should I worry now

           G         Em
They don't listen anyhow

        C              D              Em       A7
So, I’m singing all my brand new crap tonight

    C              D              G
I’m singing all my brand new crap tonight
